What Comes to Mind When you Hear..

Question 1 

FTV: We see that you took on the role of Tommy Q in 2004.  What was the audition process like?  How did you hear about it?   

Tim: I was shooting another project in Toronto. So I auditioned while I was shooting something else.  I remember reading with Alexz and that there were alot of people in the room.  Other than that, it's kind of a blur.  Memory loss comes with old age....

Question 3

FTV: You’ve been in movies and on TV, would you say filming for each is different or the same and how?
 

Tim: Nothing is as comfortable as Instant Star. Nothing. It becomes almost too comfortable. Movies are always different because they're new. New character. New crew. New challenges.

Question 4

FTV: We’ve seen you play the piano on Instant Star.  Is that really you playing and if so, how long have you been playing?        

Tim: Piano not so much, enough to learn the parts but I'm definitely not Ray Charles. I play drums and guitar. That's the best part of being an actor though, learning new things, like different instruments or driving fancy cars. I still can't drive stick and every car I get on Instant Star is manual!!! Tommy Q needs to pick one car and stick with it!  Hopefully an automatic.

Question 5

FTV: We were told that you have your own restaurant.  What is the name of it and can you tell us a little bit about it?  What made you start it?

Tim: Garde Manger 408 St. Francois Xavier.. Old Port of Montreal -- Nice plug!
My best friend wanted to open a restaurant. I said sure and we opened.  It's the best thing I ever did with my life.. I'm super blessed to have it. My 2 partners are my  friends and I love being there. It gives me balance in my life. I work so hard when I'm there. It takes up so much time and energy its crazy but its worth it.. Anyway i need to work. There are 2 types of bees, worker bees and queen bees.. I'm a warrior bee!!! ( how cliche was that)! I love it. Sometimes people who come to the restaurant are suprised to see me working so hard. What do they want me do? Sit around and try to look cool?  I bartended seven years of my life. I like being behind a bar. It's a good balance to my actor life.

Question 6

FTV: The fourth season is about to start on Instant Star.  We know the fans cannot wait to see what happens after we were left with such a cliffhanger at the end of season 3!  Can you give us any hints or sneak peeks on what is to come?  When will season 4 begin?  

Tim: I really have no idea.
